It's not just Microsoft. Other smaller employers are aping those guys.
My employer has an utterly ridiculous PowerBI dashboard tracking how much every employee uses LLM-based tools. Make sure to enable the Premium models, because otherwise you won't get credit! There are naughty lists for people whose usage is too low. Luckily the usage goals (for now) aren't very high.
However, they're also getting anal about tracking tasks, and the powers at be have asserted control over all aspects of story creation and work process. There's speculation they're going to start tracking story completion rates, and demanding measured productivity increases.
